British Civil Servant

v2 Chapter 966: icelandic fisherman

Alan Wilson has many things to do, such as inquiring about the UK's gold reserves from the Treasury, investigating the size and length of service of the Royal Navy, all of which are to better assess the current level of the UK's national strength and better formulate foreign policy policy.

Some data that can be seen at a glance do not need to be verified, such as the remaining colony area and population.

Of course, this does not mean that it is not important. For any country, both land area and population are important.

He only attacked the South Korean ambassador before, and he was judged on the basis of land area and population, and only said to a few diplomats who followed him. If it was China and India, he would definitely be polite.

Not to mention that he has never found anything worthwhile about Korean culture. Even if Korea is really a cultural power, it is not worth mentioning in the eyes of the United Kingdom. The United Kingdom is the center of European culture, France, and the achievements of Japan. An everlasting prestige.

Could it be that Britain has secured its position as the first colonial empire, relying on Britain to become more literate? Not relying on colony size and population, who cares about culture, which has no criteria at all.

"3,500 tons of gold, including the reserves of other countries in London, 4,200 tons. The entire Royal Navy has 2.1 million tons of warships." After getting the desired data, Alan Wilson was very pleased , must be much stronger than the historical period in my mind.

The size and tonnage of the Royal Navy is nearly twice that of the current Soviet Red Navy, and it is still quite powerful compared to the US Navy.

In the thirteenth year after the war, after continuous upgrading, the tonnage of the US Navy dropped to 9.4 million tons, which is less than five times that of the Royal Navy.

For the United Kingdom, this is already very difficult, because the Royal Navy has a large number of old warships to retire and can maintain the tonnage.

Britain has sold so many aircraft carriers, the Royal Navy can still maintain its original size, and Marshal Mountbatten has done everything he can.

After the United States experienced a substantial expansion during the war, the US Navy's warships will be retired in large numbers around the seventies. By that time, the U.S. Navy will experience a massive downsizing.

On this earth, the U.S. Navy after World War II has always been in a position of seeking defeat, without any challenger?

Not really. The peak of the Soviet Red Navy was in 1987, when the total tonnage of the Soviet Red Navy was 3.5 million tons, and the total tonnage of the US Navy was 3.8 million tons. on a level.

After two decades of construction, the Soviet Red Navy in the 1980s, although still not the opponent of the US Navy in the surface fleet, has also grown into a global navy. If you go all out to fight with the United States, you can do it together.

Ironically, that was when Ronald Reagan was the president of the United States. I really don’t know how Reagan would have rounded up the Six Hundred Search Navy warship plan if the map head didn’t come to power, or else he would bow and apologize like the Japanese?

After some data collection, Alan Wilson felt that the UK's resistance in all aspects should be much stronger than the original history of losing its soul, and this option of eliminating the threat of war. It is not easy for the United States to force Britain to submit.

All that is being done now is to prepare for possible changes in America, such as Kennedy. The difference between the Democrats and the Republicans is that the Republicans either do nothing or go to war, or at least they can do what they appear to be. And the Democratic Party is a typical dangling.

Take the current Eisenhower administration as an example. In addition to expanding the nuclear arsenal, the Republican Party under his leadership is most concerned about the construction of domestic infrastructure. Really no trouble.

Although the original Suez Canal War happened during Eisenhower's term, Alan Wilson believes that if the Democratic government encounters this incident, it will definitely take the opportunity to make the United Kingdom miserable. The Republican Party is not particularly cruel.

He knew in his heart that Eisenhower's term was over and the last shred of Republican isolationism would be gone. No matter who the U.S. government is in the future, it will be more aggressive to implement policies, that is for sure.

Therefore, we must prepare for a more confident America in the future. We must first measure whether the current British resistance is up to standard.

After communicating with the Ministry of Defense, the Ministry of the Interior, and the Ministry of Finance, colleagues have reached a small range of cautious optimism.

At this moment, Alan Wilson is of course not qualified to say, "It's back, it's all back."

But Britain's creeping back has come to an end, and colleagues in Whitehall are quite optimistic.

London International Airport, the esteemed President of Mountbatten Group, finally arrived in loyal London, with a harvest of 200 million US dollars, Pamela Mountbatten was in high spirits, and her steps were much lighter.

Rebs once said that standing on the wind, a pig can go to the sky, this sentence fully expresses the importance of opportunity.

Now Pamela Mountbatten fits the description of this sentence very well. She is not without the figure of 200 million US dollars, but it has never been as easy as this time.

"Dear." The female president, who saw her husband's figure, almost jumped into the man's arms.

"It's still like a little girl, she's already a mother." Patting his wife's back lightly behind him, Alan Wilson said softly, "It must be very tiring to go to the United States, did you pay attention to rest?"

"I'm full of energy now, and some physical exertion is nothing." While speaking, Pamela Mountbatten yawned, indicating that it was definitely not as relaxed as it seemed, "Today is a working day, please come and pick me up. "

"It doesn't matter, it's just noon. The minister will be considerate." Alan Wilson looked relaxed. Foreign Secretary Harold Wilson should be reading Khrushchev's visit report at this time, and there is no time to find him.

Regarding Khrushchev's visit to a major country, the country with the largest area and the most populous country in the world is still in the same camp. From a diplomatic perspective, it is impossible to care too much.

Fortunately, there is currently no news about the UK, which in itself is the greatest good news.

The minister was concerned about the international situation, and naturally, some trivial matters fell on Alan Wilson, such as how to deal with the Icelandic fisherman.

In a dark cabin that smelled of salt and sea, the fishermen drank on their elbows at the table. Compared with their stature, the cabin was too short, and one end was slender, like a hollowed out belly of a sea gull.

The cabin swayed slightly and let out a monotonous sigh, which was so slow that one fell asleep.

Outside, it should be the sea and the night, but nothing can be seen from the inside. The only exit was on the top of the cabin, closed with a wooden lid, and illuminated by an old chandelier that swung to and fro.

There was a fire in the stove, toasting their damp clothes, giving off steam that smelled of earthy pipes.

A bulky table took up the whole room, not too big or too small, just enough to leave a gap for people to slip in and sit on a narrow wooden box close to the oak siding; a few huge beams were on top, almost touching. their heads; behind them, there were cots dug out of thick square wood, open like a tomb for the dead.

All the sidings were worn and rough, eroded by moisture and salt water, and rubbed off by their hands over time.

The Icelandic ambassador eloquently explained the difficulties of the Icelandic fisherman, hoping to inspire the empathy of the British in front of him.

It is a pity that the ambassador does not know that the best way to defeat the so-called British gentleman in front of him is to use a beauty trick. In addition to this, this person is powerful in every aspect. There is no so-called empathy at all, not only Taking some eloquent elaboration as a deaf ear, even some want to laugh.

"Respected ambassador, isn't Iceland exploring the North American market?" Alan Wilson asked with an afterthought as he picked up the Cuban cigar brought back by his wife.

He is completely standing and talking without back pain. With Iceland's position, how could it be possible to open up the North American market and win over Newfoundland, which is next to North America? Newfoundland is above Iceland in terms of geographical location and resource reserves~lightnovelpub.net~ and has the same feeling of the same text.

Even if it is a price war, Newfoundland, which is supported by an offshore financial center, has enough confidence to let Icelanders accompany their pants.

With so many unfavorable factors, can Iceland still compete with Newfoundland? Isn't that hell?

At last year's European Community meeting, Iceland was dizzy with a big stick, and he finally knew what the consequences of his being alone in the world, which really angered these European countries.

Of course, the United States also wants to pull Iceland and communicated through diplomatic channels, but the ban is a resolution at the European Community meeting.

"Iceland is also part of Europe!" the Icelandic ambassador said, "The Danish side is also on Iceland's side."

"The Danes are really magnanimous." Alan Wilson narrowed his eyes and said in a sneering tone, "If it was the United Kingdom, it might not have been so quick to have a drink with an independent territory."

Anyway, as long as Alan Wilson is there for one day, Ireland will not want to enter the European Community. As for what is the relationship between Iceland and Denmark? Denmark is also not a member of the European Community, so the Icelandic ambassador can understand that two members who are not members of the European Community want to do something to the member states of the European Community.

The Icelandic ambassador expressed a misunderstanding, "Iceland is willing to sign a maritime agreement with the United Kingdom to make up for the loss of British fishermen."

"It turns out that Iceland also knew that the British fishermen suffered a lot." Alan Wilson nodded clearly, "We thought that the Icelanders didn't know this."
